General description

Flash photolysis of O2 and 1-fluoronaphthalene mixtures in the gas phase have been investigated.

Application

1-Fluoronaphthalene was used in t-BuLi-mediated synthesis of 6-substituted phenanthridines. It was also used in the synthesis of LY248686, a potent inhibitor of serotonin and norepinephrine uptake.

[reaction: see text] A one-pot, t-BuLi-induced synthesis of 6-substituted phenanthridines from fluoroarenes and nitriles via 1,2-arynes is reported. Aryl- and hetaryl nitriles, cyanamides, and trimethylacetonitrile gave phenanthridine products. The method was extended to provide bisphenanthridine 10 by a one-pot bis-cyclization

[reaction: see text] Electron-rich dinaphthyl ethers were synthesized by S(N)Ar reactions between naphthols and activated fluoronaphthalenes. 2-tert-Butyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine (Barton's base) was found to be an excellent, mild alternative to traditional inorganic bases for promoting the coupling reaction.

The metabolism of 1-fluoronaphthalene by Cunninghamella elegans ATCC 36112 was studied. The metabolites were isolated by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography and characterized by the application of UV absorption, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectral techniques. C. elegans oxidized 1-fluoronaphthalene
